Lifestyle - baking Carrot & Apple loaf

Hey lovelies, I'm back with another little baking post for you, I'm really getting back into my baking recently and find it relaxing on my day off to spend time in the kitchen and my family are certainly not complaining. So anyway Carrot & Apple loaf is super easy and makes a really moist tasty loaf.....Ingredients

1 large egg

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/3 cup melted butter

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup yogurt

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 cup plain flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon bicarb of soda

1 large grated carrot

1 grated apple

Directions

Preheat oven to 350f and grease a 9x5 loaf tin,

In a large bowl or food mixer combine the first 8 ingredients up to the nutmeg.

Add the flour, baking powder & bicarb and stir gently with a spatula.

Add the grated carrot and apple and fold in.

Pour the mixture into the loaf tin, don't panic the batter is ment to be thick.

Bake for approx 40 mins this will depend on your oven and the moisture content of the carrot and apple. keep an eye on it and when a skewer comes out clean its cooked. You may need to cover it with foil for the last 10 mins or so to stop it catching on the top.

Allow the loaf to cool in the tin for 15 mins then turn out to a rack to cool completely.

Enjoy a slice with a cuppa.
